Conservatism a retardation?

Haha. Pathetic Attempt.
 
Don't try to associate PNAC Neo-con inanity with real Barry Goldwater conservatives. Honestly man did you even try. No comments or opinions to back up that thread title?

Even ptsdKid shows more initiative.

Point? You take time to restate a personal attack upon a highly successful and highly intelligent man?

Just pointing out the obvious to which Rush Limbaugh was addicted to pain killers I believe it was. Not to mention Calling Liberalism a "sickness" is a personal attack itself on liberals. So do not take the moral high ground with me.

On a Side note: Who said Rush Limbaugh was "intelligent?"
 
A personal attack against liberals? It is an ideology. I am not personally attacking a liberal, I posted a radio transcript. Pointing out the obvious? HAH. Pathetic that you even have to bring that up in the discussion, considering it's irrelevancy. If you read the transcript it was not Rush who was calling it a sickness, it was the ex-Hippie caller, Rush was merely agreeing. Rush is very intelligent he built himself an empire from nothing, is the most successful radio pundit on the air, continually presents great arguments for the right wing, and has authored two highly successful books. To try and denounce his intellect (as a human being) because you disagree with his politics is partisan and ignorant.
 
Conservatism is a foundation that can work. Unfortunately, religion and money is used for very immoral and evil means controlling one of the reasons why Conservatism cannot be any more than Radicalization Political Party of current.

Individuality of social, American, political, and religious cannot be shared nor interconnected rather deemed not profitable in various of ways. None for the betterment of this great nation.

I don't know how to amend Conservatism in America. I can only do my part and continue my personal empowerment, same as the next person.

Well...let's see...

Rush is a highly successful talk host who has found a way to make more money in a year than you or I or anyone else here probably make in a lifetime. He is successful enough to fly around in a private jet when and where he wishes. He is heard by millions of listeners, and his show has enough listeners to command more advertising dollars than ANY other show in radio history. His show is actually PROFITABLE, unlike anything on Air America...the network that loses money hand over fist and which couldn't spell "profit" with a dictionery and a week's head start.

All of this starting from being a second tier radio baseball commentator in a second rate sports radio market.

You, on the other hand, have been so successful that you can only whine and cry on a political website that, while we users love it, is hardly a pimple on an elephant's butt in the great scheme of things.

Given all of that, if Rush is so stupid, just exactly what does that make you?

Personal financial wealth shouldn't be a tool used to caste un-conservatism notions back and forth while attacking in negative fashions those who don't support conservative wealth, individuality, progressiveness, humanity, compassion, and a sense of American empathy no matter your party and un-Constitutional class system.

I rather live on a budget until I die then be deemed what many Republicans and immoral souls are within my country. You can make as much money as you wish in America legally, but never trade away what makes you humane.

Hmm...Limbaugh admitted his problem and went into rehab on his own....he's now off his drug addiction and stands as a role model for drug addicts.

Liberals.....not so much.

But, he isn't a "role model" for drug addicts. He, like most Republican addicts, give credit to religion and condemns those that don't follow that religious hypocrisy. This is like saying President Bush is a "role model" for alcoholism suffers. Love how the media never made that reality a bigger issue especially as the President is so unappealing toward those that don't have the wealth and family support to simply over come, as he did.
 

But, He is a role model for drug addicts......see, I can just post the opposite of what you say also.

Yes, he gives credit to religion, as does the AA program. Apparently submitting to a higher power is necessary in order to best empower one's self to overcoming adversity. It's but one benefit that "believers" have that non believers choose not to partake in.

Bush is a recovering alcoholic, sure, not like the anti-Bush crowd would ever give credit where credit is due, however. Liberals just find a way, any way, to become and remain a victim, as evidenced in your last post.
 
I don't play the game of blaming Republicans and Democrats because that disorder isn't bridging the many negative realities my country faces. I put culpability where it lies within individuals and those that chooses to politically and socially exist collectively.

I have not read any indication of the assumption of Mr. Lambaugh being a role model for drug abusers of current and former. I haven't read any situation where he has allowed his prominence to become a positive force within areas of America in which, drug abuse is very high and deadly.

Nor, have I read any where, where President Bush, when he was "saved" from alcohol abuse, do anything profound for those that were suffering. Millions in America are suffering from some form of substance and alcohol abuse and I don't read nor vision our president nor Mr. Lambaugh stepping up, and showing any assume role model image you notion Sir.

Please, provide examples of Mr. Lambaugh's role model leadership and humanity.

Oh, and my belief is not partaking into any form of dependency and if I did and fully recovered, I would do what I could to assist others and not turn my back toward them with religious pity.

My belief would be within the human race for support and myself as the primary tool in recovery.
 

If public figures overcoming adversity as a matter of public record does not make them a role model, then I guess I don't understand sports or the military or similar for being role models either.

I could give you a couple knee-jerk sources for Limbaugh, but something tells me that no matter how many times you hear his story it won't make a difference in your opinion.

This is what I get for posting in a political party thread. I should have known better.
 
Jerry, if I am wrong I am wrong. I will admit the rare moments I am. Never again feel I am not impartial. Please provide examples if they exist. If those examples involve making profound changes, where changes are needed within America he does deserve acclaim.
 

The most successfull radiohost(ever) is obviously Howards Stern, and I cant really say that he is very conservative.

Limbough just take advantage of all the retards that listen to his one sided unintelligently made propaganda.

You my friend. Are Dumb.
 
Am I the only one here who would rather hang out with an intelligent conservative than a stupid liberal and an intelligent liberal instead of a stupid conservative?

As far as I'm concerned, the stupidest people are the ones who are most dogmatic.They don't know WHY they believe anything they do, they just believe it because that is what is expected of them. They don't really think, but just parrot.

I find midless leftist Eurobabble just as annoying as mindless righty religious fundamentalism, myself. Neither shows me much, since it is all just herd mentality.

Neither conservatism nor liberalism are retarted. Of course, that does not stop some people from trying to turn them such.
 
This thread was simply a stupid "parellell" to the "is liberlism a sickness" thread.
Just to demonstrate the exact point you are pointing at.

So in response to "liberalism is a sickness" you posted "conservatism is retardation" to show us all how wrong the liberal thread was, thereby continuing the cycle of partisan retardation, the same retardation Gardener was talking about when he said mindless eurobabble (he was talking about you!)
 

I see it more as a case of "Don't dish it out if you can't take it", or, in a more philosophical vein, "Those who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones."

Either way, liberal/conservative retardation/sickness doesn't interest me all that much; overgeneralizations and blanket statements seldom do.
